I'm using the <section> tag and placing the content between the <header> and <footer> in it's not accepting it. Help?

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <link href="styles.css" rel="stylesheet">
    <title>My Portfolio</title>
  </head>
  <header>
  <body>
    <ul>
      <li><a href="#">About</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Work</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Contact</a></li>            
    </ul>


    <h1>My Web Design &amp; Development Portfolio!</h1> 
    <p>A site featuring my latest work.</p>


    <section>
        <h2>Welcome</h2> 

        <p>Fusce semper id ipsum sed scelerisque. Etiam nec elementum massa. Pellentesque tristique ex ac ipsum hendrerit, eget feugiat ante faucibus.</p>
        <ul>
          <li><a href="#">Recent project #1</a></li>
          <li><a href="#">Recent project #2</a></li>
          <li><a href="#">Recent project #3</a></li>     
        </ul>

     </section>

    </header>

    <footer>
    <p>&copy; 2017 My Portfolio</p>
    <p>Follow me on <a href="#">Twitter</a>, <a href="#">Instagram</a> and <a href="#">Dribbble</a></p>

The section element is currently inside of the header element.

If you take a look at where the header element is being closed, you should then notice what you need to fix to get it between the header and footer :)
